Terrorist Update for Today

And yes, it is getting to be a daily thing.  Nice country we live in here.  Actually, there are two things to report today:

First, someone doesn't like Jerry Brown:



Terrorist threats to murder California Governor Jerry Brown are being taken very seriously by the police.

"Cpl. Anthony Bertagna, spokesman for the Santa Ana Police Department, said one of the messages read, "we gonna kill Gov. Brown 2/14/11."  The other said "27 more days 4 Brown" and included a swastika."

I'm sure we will be reading any day now at right wing blogs how this is the work of liberals too.

And second, today is the start of the murder trial in Tucson of Shawna Forde.  Remember her?



Don't mess with this mama. She is the white supremacist, anti-immigrant racist who led a minuteman group which attacked a house they believed to be inhabited by a Hispanic drug dealer.  Oops, wrong house...however they did succeed in murdering a totally innocent man and his nine year old daughter, in a spectacular example of justice, right wing style.

A couple of remarks from Shawna's fellow racists:

"This is not what Minutemen do," said member Chuck Stonex"

Sorry Chuck...apparently it is.

And this amusing article:

"11 Reasons Why Shawna Forde Can't Get a Fair Trial in Pima County (Tucson)
 1. Pima County is a satellite of Mexico"

Honestly, I don't think we need to cover the other ten reasons.

It is also reported that Shawna has filed a complaint with the ACLU.  You've just got to laugh.

I hadn't previously heard of the Forde case... shocking.

You might want to add the pic of the victims from the Wikipedia page. Ask your trolls to look into the eyes of that little girl and say "yes a country awash with guns run by the Right is just dandy".

And why isn't this all front page news?
Don't bother answering - the question is rhetorical.

The national 'media' seems to have thrown this crime down the memory hole

Gee, I wonder if a Reich Winger would be clever enough to frame hatred in fake ebonics? Nah, they never race bait, do they?

Can't be true. They are all white people and white people are the victims of racism. Haven't they told you that often enough for you to believe it? What kind of patriot are you?

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
